Prakash Javadekar also assured that the centre would construct two new hostel buildings at the Central University of Kerala, one of which will be funded by the UGC while the other will get funds from the social welfare grant. Javadekar further pointed that the varsity could not accommodate all the students on the campus. Therefore, students must make use of private hostels. Javadekar assured adequate funds for the development of the university in the next budget.

The construction of transit campus of IIT Palakkad was expected to begin in January 2017. However, due to the delay in the acquisition of land, the construction had been delayed.
